The Quad... It's not until the second year that coeds figure out that name refers to a location on campus.

As opposed to the St. John's Abbey, who many believed to be a Bennie with low self-esteem that was a frequent late night visitor to the dorms.

So, even an nicely aged scotch is not allowed?  And no combustible burning materials?  Sorry, but propane falls into that category, as well.

If you donate $1,000,000 to U$T I'm sure you could get a spot in the luxury sky box and have your scotch delivered on a tray.   

AND Ollie gets into UST in 18 years, no questions asked! Tough to pass up, Duff 

I dont mind Dave Lee..he's actually learing to pronounce MIAC names correctly! I really like the job Steve Thompson does in studio-- that man has a voice that is perfect for radio!!

Last week, I caught what must have been the tail end of a Michele (too full of me) Tofoya interview with Caruso. Her last line cracked me up-- she couldnt get him to look ahead to the SJU game and concluded: "Glenn, you must Fear The Ear"

Dave Lee is not a good play by play guy.  He and Steve Thompson are good studio guys and are great at pitching "Gutter Helmet" or "Country Hearth Bread" but calling a football or basketball game is not their strong suit.

Two guys were walking through a cemetery when they happened upon a tombstone that read: "Here lies John Sweeney, a good man and a Tommies fan."

So, one of them asked the other: "When the hell did they start putting two people in one grave?"

Why do UST fans stink?
So blind people can hate them, too.

What's the difference between a cactus and UST's shiny new facilities?
A cactus has pricks on the outside.

You can drink at Bethel? Interesting.

Actually, I don't think we've ever been hassled for booze when tailgating at Bethel.  Not what you'd think, I know!

Bethel respects discretion.

Oz, you need to retire that one.  With the new big hitter seating hanging off the Anderson building, U$T also has pricks on the outside of the shiny new building.  In fact, one might say they have pricks hanging from the building.

I just noticed that it's the Anderson Athletic & Recreation Complex

Oz, I'll let you run with that and the cactus thing.

I've been racking my brain trying to figure out who Glenn Caruso reminds me of.  I finally got it...actor Bryan Callen.  Anyone?

Bethel is by far the best place for a bunch of middle aged white guys at an opposing school to tailgate. Heck they even give people rides in golf carts from the parking lot with coolers to the tailgate spot. Bethel provides trash receptacles and keeps checking on us to see if we need anything....while the trash can is overflowing with beer cans, and guys are barely into the woods to cut a whizzz. They just leave us the hell alone....so we can drink our beer & eat our food in peace.

That's pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty good!

I have a random question for you guys.

So last night the school I work at had this speaker on positive coaching, sportsmanship etc (surburban Boston).  The speaker told this story about a high school in Minnesota (Red Wing) and how they played a state championship in football against (Pius XX?) and played without any coaches for some reason or another.  The speaker says Red Wing won the game by calling their own plays, etc and won the state championship. 

So today I start to look on the internet and can't find anything on the subject.  Just seems like a wierd story and a quick check shows that Red Wing hasn't won any state champioinships in anything besides boys hockey in 1997 and some womens sports (golf and swimming).

I dunno, the story just seemed too wierd to make up for a guy who goes around the country speaking about things like this.  He was from California.

I love how you throw in that last line.  Nothing is too weird if it comes from California.  Isn't everyone that lives in CA a natural born fibber?  I'm pretty sure that's true.  I saw it in Wikipedia or something.

Sounds like something Wonka would know....he used to be a sports reporter at their (Red Wing) local newspaper.
The important thing would be the year.... was it in the early part of the 20th century (circa 1900-1920)??
